Issue #49 - "Birds of a Feather"

In this week’s issue we talk all about Hawk & Dove!

Any iteration of the team, their powers, their personalities, or their adventures is fair game! But first we dive into the world that is DC News. From details about an Ava Duvernay directed DC movie, to Nicolas Cage finally getting to put on the cape and tights! All this and more on this week’s Doctor DC Podcast!
